The Gort Regional Water Supply Scheme is included in my Department's Water Services Investment Programme 2007-2009 as a scheme to start construction in 2009. Galway County Council has now confirmed that an Environmental Impact Assessment is not required for the scheme and that a revised Preliminary Report will be submitted to my Department for approval by the end of the year.
